What should it cost

I have seen many posts on themeforest from authors saying that as time goes by we all should be careful on what we charge because we are making the services to cheap. So lets say that someone comes here, buys a theme and wants you to install wordpress, customize the theme just a bit and maybe add some content.

What is a good price? What would be to cheap? I was thinking an automatic $200.00 to install wordpress, upload the theme and get it working. What do you guys charge?

Yeah but you have to understand there were another efforts like mailing with the client, paypal fees. So the $20 seams fair to me. Plus I dont usually do custom work for my themes unless I really like the project or the client. But I usually charge $50-80 per hour for “big” custom works on my themes.

I absolutely agree, this are things that must be considered or you just self-exploit your self. This could destroy the market here. Not every one have big sales, many people depending on freelance work from this place. But I think the most people here are considering all this when there calculate his price.
